Masseria Borghetto - A Historic Masseria Rooted in Nature and Tradition near Lecce

Set in the heart of Salento, just minutes from the coastline of Torre dell’Orso and the cultural capital of Lecce, this restored 18th-century masseria offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Puglia’s agricultural and architectural heritage.

The estate spans 17 hectares of organically cultivated land and comprises several stone buildings with a total internal surface of approximately 1,500 sqm. True to its origins, the central courtyard is framed by vaulted ceilings, wooden beams, open archways, and a historic dovecote tower. The masseria has been carefully renovated to retain its original character while introducing essential modern comforts — making it ideal as a private residence, rural retreat, or boutique hospitality project.

The land surrounding the buildings is fully organic, supporting fruit and vegetable production and offering the potential for farm-to-table experiences. A short walk from the main house, a saltwater infinity pool is set in a peaceful grove, offering privacy and calm.

The property also benefits from a 12 kW photovoltaic system and solar thermal water heating, supporting a low-impact, environmentally responsible lifestyle. Free from light, noise, and electromagnetic pollution, this is a place for those who value space, nature, and simplicity.

Whether you're seeking a family estate, a hospitality venture, or a long-term investment in one of southern Italy’s most desirable regions, this masseria offers a rare combination of character, setting, and opportunity.
